I've only ever bought one new computer in my life (I currently own like a dozen laptops) and I've never actually bought a TV. I've gotten them all from friends and relatives, pulled them from ewaste and picked them up off the curb. I'm sure this varys wildly but where I am it feels like working electronics are so common and available in our world we're one step short of just picking them up off the ground.
